Shri HEMANAND BISWAL
Will the Minister of COMMUNICATIONS AND
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY be pleased to state:-
(a) whether the Government has made any changes on the appointments on
compassionate grounds in Posts & Telegraph Department and restricted such
appointments to the minimum in the recent years;
(b) if so, the details thereof
along with the number of such cases pending for appointment during the last three years in various
circles, circle-wise including Odisha; and
(c) the criterion for rejecting applications
for such appointments?
ANSWER
THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF COMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY (DR. (SMT) KILLI KRUPARANI)
(a) No,
Madam. The rules/instructions issued by the Department of Personnel &
Training (DOP&T) i.e. the Nodal Department of the Government of India, are
followed in the Department of Posts and Department of Telecommunications for
compassionate appointment cases of the dependents of
ex-Government employees. An objective Point System is followed in the
Department of Posts to assess the indigent condition of the family of an
ex-employee. So far as compassionate engagement cases of dependents of Gramin
Dak Sevaks (GDS) are concerned, the Department of Posts follows similar kind of
objective Point System and its own internal instructions as GDS system is not
covered by DOP&T.
(b) Does not arise in view of
reply to (a) above. However, Circle-wise details of
compassionateappointment/engagement cases including Odisha in Department of
Posts for the last three years are attached as Annexure I & II and of
Department of Telecommunications at Annexure III.
